“Cynthia went above and beyond to make sure that our kitties were well taken care of during our trip! She was thorough, sent great pictures and was quick to respond. 10/10 would recommend and would book with her again!”


“I am beyond impressed with the care Erika provided for my senior cat, Hattie. I was looking for someone who would be both gentle and responsible, and Erika went above and beyond. She is extremely communicative, asking all the right questions about Hattie’s care. We received regular updates with pictures and detailed reports. It was so comforting to know that Hattie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Erika to anyone in need of a compassionate and reliable pet sitter. You can tell that she truly cares for animals, and that kind of dedication means the world when you're entrusting someone with your pet.”


“This is the second time that Madeline was able to watch Milo for me! She does a great job with updates and pictures and is always available for questions. She makes my vacation time so much better knowing that my baby is in great hands!”


“Sarah did a fabulous job taking care of our two cats. She was timely in her visits and gave updates on how they were doing. The cats were lucky to have such a wonderful caregiver.”


“Grace is such a sweet heart. Took great care of my zoo. Super personable and loves animals. Her availability is great and is very punctual with her visits. I had absolutely no worries leaving my babies in the care of Grace. Thank you so much! 😊”


“In the past we’ve used a boarding service for our kitty Douglas, but due to him coming home stressed out more often than not this time we decided to try rover for our 6 day trip and we are glad we did! Luy followed all our directions and we came home to a happy kitty cat! We had no issues while away and felt like our baby was very safe with Luy. We will be using her again when we take our next trip!”



“Morgan did an excellent job taking care of my senior cat Hana while I was away on vacation for a week. Morgan sent multiple pictures of Hana every day. I could tell by the pictures that she was in great hands which gave me great peace so I could enjoy my vacation. At the first meet and greet I had with Morgan my cat took to her immediately and I did too. I highly recommend Morgan!”



“Nadine has been great with my cat! She confirms quickly, always checks in a day before, let’s me know when she’s going to stop by for her visit and is so good about sending pictures every day. Awesome!”


“Jamie was amazing! She took great care of Felix and Mimosa and shared daily pictures and funny quips about their adventures together. I was able to fully enjoy my vacation knowing Jamie was staying at the house and looking after my felines. The house was in better shape when I got back than when I left as an added bonus. :)”


About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my seven years of hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also birds, chickens, and horses. I bring a calm, confident presence that helps animals feel at ease, even those with special needs or unique temperaments. I understand that every pet is different and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My background in animal care goes beyond the basics, and I treat each pet like my own—with patience, respect, and genuine love. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or specialized care, I’m here to provide reliable, attentive service you can count on. I currently work full-time, but I have time Saturdays and Sundays for petsitting. I usually work shorter hours Tuesday and Wednesday, so i’m available as well Tuesday through Thursday. I always follow your instructions whether that be taking your dog out on a long lead, or constant watching in your fenced in yard. I make sure they get fed on time, potty breaks if they need them a certain time apart, ie every hour, etc.

About: I have taken care of pets all my life. Whether it’s my dog or someone else's, I’ve taken care of all different breeds from puppy to senior. I can provide loving and trustworthy care your doggie needs when you are away. My schedule is open and flexible on most days of the week. There are times when I might not be available occasionally on Tuesdays and Saturdays. I always conduct myself with the utmost respect and care for your pet and your home just as I would my own. I will always provide competent and safe care for all pets, no matter the task.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life; dogs, cats, ducks, and more. I love being able to provide a safe and peaceful experience for any type of pet! I’m currently caring for my disabled mom. I have the flexibility and availability to help out any time of day. Whether it’s walking, sitting, or check-ins. I currently have two big dogs, Bubba and Rufus. I’ve had both since they were puppies and have used positive reinforcement training to now have both well socialized and very good boys.

About: I have had dogs since I was born through today. I am also an approved Foster dog parent through Tiny & Tall Rescue of St. Charles, IL. Currently, i have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own. I recently worked for a pet sitting company in the area called Pause for Pets but they closed their business at the end of June. I am currently a stay-at-home Mom with a very flexible schedule.

About: About us: I stumbled onto Rover in August 2022 after trying to think of ways to make a little extra money while working at home, full-time, and with 3 kids (approaching middle and high school) that have wanted a dog since probably before they were born. I grew up with dogs and wanted a dog too! But I also didn’t want the vet visits, food expenses…what do we do with a dog when we want to travel? Fast forward to now and dog-sitting has been a truly epic, awesome experience for all of us. By the time you read this it’s likely we will have reached triple digits of dogs that have stayed here. My kids get to learn about ALL different kinds of dogs which has turned them into lifelong dog lovers. I get the companionship I’m looking for while working at home with lots of flexibility so we can block off the calendar when we are ready to have our next travel adventure. And when you choose us your dog becomes part of our pack, and given the very best care 24/7. I am fully aware that your dog is a member of your family and I truly appreciate your trust in selecting us to care for them. I believe strongly in supporting and giving back to the community, so in addition to fostering dogs we also give a portion of my Rover income back to the local animal shelter. Win-win! What it’s like here: We have a huge fenced-in yard with a horse farm behind us so lots of interesting sights, sounds and smells for your doggie to experience. Many like to hang out on the deck and watch the horses behind our home. Your dog will come home relaxed and happy. Many repeat clients tell me their dogs get excited as soon as they turn onto our street for the next visit because they have happy memories of their last stay. We can hang out with your pooch for doggie day care, overnight, weekend visits, short-term (1-2 weeks), and long-term stays (>2 weeks). We will follow your instructions to a T. Is your dog allowed on your couch? Sure, us too! Does your dog sleep with you? Okay, we can do that! No crate? Sounds great! We want them to enjoy themselves as much as we enjoy having them here. They are truly our guest. It's amazing how quickly the dogs adapt and become part of the family. I’ve cared for dogs that require oral and injected medication, senior dogs, dogs with anxiety, and dogs with diapers. YOUR dog is most welcome. I love figuring out what makes them feel safe and comfortable. Did you know? When searching for a sitter check if the review is flagged "verified stay".
